While the bulk of visible flames are extinguished, there is still pressurized smoke emanating from parts of the building and crews are working to find the sources. There are no other buildings exposed and no injuries reported. One additional task force requested due to the extended operational period and the split between the two occupancies (duplex).; FS 55; Batt 2; Central Bureau; Council District 1; BC2 BC5 E12 E212 E250 E42 E44 E55 EA1 RA12 RA55 T12 T50; CH9; 15; Margaret Stewart

Update Brush Fire #SolanoFire - Knockdown 04/08/2022 INC#0545

Update #SolanoFire - Knockdown Brush Fire; INC#0545; 10:25AM; 1231 North Broadway; https://bit.ly/3DRAZ2J; #ElysianPark; Though *Address Corrected* From Solano Avenue to Broadway, this wildfire will still be known as the "Solano Fire". The first arriving 50 LAFD ground-based firefighters took just 24 minutes to access, confine and fully extinguish what airborne firefighters have determined to be one-quarter (0.25) acre of medium brush. Though some structures, including an apartment building were in the path of advancing flames, proper vegetation clearance gave firefighters a defensive advantage and prevented the buildings from being directly threatened by flames. No injury. No evacuation. Fire cause under investigation.; FS 1; Batt 2; Central Bureau; Council District 1; AO1 BC1 BC11 BC2 CM22 E1 E16 E201 E203 E209 E220 E29 E290 E33 E38 E44 E56 E6 E9 EM1 H1 H2 H5 HA1 HA2 HA5 RA1 T1 T20 T3 T9 T90 + LACoFD Air Ops; CH5; 13; Brian Humphrey
